only in israel could you see the dead sea scrolls and the place where the technology on board the mars rover originated at the same time. but what i've most looked forward to is the ability to speak directly to you, the israeli people -- especially so many young people who are here today -- to talk about the history that brought us here today, and the future that you will make in the years to come. now, i know that in israel's vibrant democracy, every word, every gesture is carefully scrutinized. but i want to clear something up just so you know -- any drama between me and my friend, bibi, over the years was just a plot to create material for eretz nehederet. that's the only thing that was going on. we just wanted to make sure the writers had good material. [laughter] i also know that i come to israel on the eve of a sacred holiday -- the celebration of passover. and that is where i would like to begin today. just a few days from now, jews here in israel and around the world will sit with family and friends at the seder table, and celebrate with songs, wine and symbolic foods. after en
